CANNOT SETTLE BY ARBITRATION
Trouble
With
Venezuela
is
One in
Which Sovereignity and National
Honor Are At Stake.
The Hague, Aug. 20. After a nine
hours’ session, during which the dis
pute between The Netherlands and
Venezuela was canvassed exhaustively
in all its phases, the cabinet dispersed
shortly after midnight last night, and
Minister ot Foreign Affairs Van Swin-
deren proceeded to the royal chateau at
Het Loo, to acquaint Queen Wilhel
mina with the result of the council.
The terms of The Netherlands’ an
swer to the letter of President Castro,
of Venezuela, were fully discussed, anil
it is understood thatt he actual text as
well as the broad lines of action, drawn
up to meet any possible eventualities,
were agreed upon.
It is maintained that the present
question is rather one of sovereignty
and national honors, matters which
are not so susceptible of solution by
arbitration.
The Netherlands government is in
clined for the present to adopt a wait
ing attitude, but it is ready to take
energetic steps whenever the develop
ments from the situation demand. It is
agreed to push all necessary prepara
tions in order to be ready to support an
ultimatum, should it be decided to for
ward one to President Castro.
Work
will be rushed night and day at the
naval dockyards to complete the prepa
rations needed by the warships, so that
they will be in readiness to reinforcce
the vessels now in the Caribbean by
the end of next month.
In the meantime every effort will be
made to find a pacific solution of the
dispute, and especially in view of the
fact that Queen Wilhelmina is opposed
to resorting to war until all other meth
ods have been tried.
UNIFORM FISH LAWS.
Anglo-American Commission at Work
Under Recent Treaty.
Vancouver, B. C., Aug. 20.—The in
ternational fisheries commission ap
pointed to draw up a uniform code of
laws for the fisheries lying between
Canada and the United States is in the
city.
It is composed of Professor
David Starr Jordan, president of Le
land Stanford university, and S. T.
Bastedo, of Ottawa, who represents
Great Britain.
It is not the intention of the com
mission to hold any public sittings,
but it will spend a week on the coast
gathering information respecting fish
eries in the Straits of San Juan de
Fuca and the Gulf of Georgia. Pro
fessor Jordan stated that they were
acting in accordance with a treaty be
tween Great Britain and the United
States, signed last April, when it
was argeed to appoint a commission to
draw up statutes.
It will be their
duty to gather all possible information
and prepare a report by January 1.

NATURE’S
PERFECT TONIC
ARE LEARNING KALE.
Oregon Farmers Overcome Prejudice
of Long Standing.
From lhe Oregon Agrbiil'ural College, Corvallia.
Kale is one of the best talking crops
in Oreg .ii. W hen the Oreg n booster
want- to prove that Oregon is the
best dairy stale in the union he has
to talk kale. Unless he knows what
kale will do to the milk bucket he has
not qualified as a booster. It is called
the thousand-headed kale, and the
botanist knows it as brassica eleracea,
but it is the plain kale of four letters
that does the talking. The strange
tiling is that it has only been during
the last two or three years that it
has had an audience, though it is
nearly thirty years old in the Willam
ette valley. It has tried to talk all
those years, but the people wouldn’t
listen when it sought recognition.
“W e n< ver heard it talk.” they in
sisted, “back in Iowa and New York.
Back there cows produce milk with
out kale, and I guess they will have
to here” That is tradition. It took
thirty years for kale to get an audi
ence in this slate and live down tra
dition.
The dairymen of New York under
stand what green succulent food
means to the dairy cow, and they
bui'd expensive silos, buy expensive
machinery, and grow fertility robb ng
corn, which they irrigate with their
sweat, in order that the farmer dur
ing the long winter months may have
an excuse for milking his cows. The
Oregonian needs no expensive silos
to remind the cow of th«
I
I
sm na r time. Kale! A th«>us tn I
blessings on the thousand-headed
kale! It is making Oregon tjie
greatest dairy state in the union.
When grown under favorable con
ditions kale will yield 40 tons per
acre of green feed, and its chief value
is as a soiling crop during the fall
and winter. Splendid results are be
ing secured by feeding kale and vetch
hay to dairy cows, without any grain
or mill feed Dr. Withycombe, of the
Agricultural College, says that 15
pounds of vetch hay and 40 pounds
of kale a day is practica'.'v a balanced
ration for a dairy cow. Mr. \V. I.
Wilson, of Banks, Or., says: “I re
ceived $207 from 14 cows in the month
of December, and fed them nothing
but kale, turnips end vetch hay. The
man who feeds chop would have to
make $237 to clear as much as I do
I have not had a speck of mill feed in
the barn al! winter.”
Mr. Byron Hunter, of Corvallis,
has, as assistant agriculturist of the
bureau of plant industry, U. S. depart
ment of agriculture, made a special
study of the forage crops of Western
Oregon, and in Bulletin No. 91. pub
lished jointly bv the Oregon Experi
ment Station and the Department of
Agriculture, has the following to say
about kale, which is timely:
“Methods of Sowing—For fall and
winter use kale is usually sown in
drills on well prepared and drained
soil as soon after the 15th of March
as the season will permit This fur
nishes plants for transplanting in
June and July The land used for
transplanting is well manured and
plowed two or three times between
the first of March and the first of
June. With the land in perfect tilth
it is plowed again with a 12-inch plow
about the first of June, and the young
kale plants dropped into every third
furrow about two and a half to three
feet apart. This places about one
plant on every square yard. The roots
of the plants are placed where the
next furrow covers them, leaving the
tops uncovered. The plants that are
plowed in during the day in this way
are rolled in the evening of the same
day to pack the ground Two or
three cultivations are all that can
usually be given, for the plants will
soon touch in the row, if they do well
Any plants that fail tn grow may be
replaced by hand Some growers
prefer to plant the seed in hills, and
when the plants are large enough thin
them to one plant in a hill Others
put kale out just as cabbage is usually
transplanted, instead of plowing it in.
The time of transplanting must be
determined bv the size of the plants
and the condition of the land If the
land is wet and subject to overflow
the transplanting may be delayed un
til during July If the land is well
drained and the plants are large
enough, it may be done before the
first
of
June. In
transplanting,
enough plants may be left for a stand
on the land where the seedlings are
grown.

A man living at Maud wants to know
if he can irrigate his trees by means
of a water wagon and barrels.
Pro
fessor Thornber did not favor the plan,
stating:
“This would be rather too complex.
I am of the opinion that you will find
it too great an expense, considering
the value of a team and a man, to haul
this water during the summer.
The
station would advise you to try and
conserve this moisture by means of
culture. This could be done with good
effect during the summer months.
I
have had considerable experience on
the state college campus in hauling
water; and have concluded, first that
it is impracticable to place water
around the tree without a heavy mulch
of straw; second, that nothing much
le.is than a barrel of water for each
tree at each watering, should be given.
This will soak the ground up fairly
well, and in our case, I did not need to
water the trees on the campus more
than twice during the summer.
I do
not know that it will be possible for
you to make use of a heavy mulch, but
in order to hold the water, it is neces
sary to do so.
You can use rotted
straw for this, or forest leaves.”—
